You will ship features across our marketplace, our Admin tools for dispensaries and brands, and the services behind them, using coding agents such as Claude Code and our in-house agent, Rhizome, to move several times faster than a traditional team while owning the quality of everything that goes out. You will turn ambiguous product problems into clear plans, break work into pieces agents can take on, review and own the results, and help the engineers around you work the same way. Success means more meaningful features shipped, higher quality, and a team that levels up by working alongside you. This role sits on a product engineering team and partners with Product, Design and our AI Platform team, which builds the shared agent tooling you will use. The impact you'll make: - Ship end-to-end product features across our consumer marketplace (web and React Native), our Admin tools for dispensaries and brands, and the Node.js and Rails services behind them. - Work AI-first every day: use Claude Code, shared skills and our autonomous coding agent to plan, write, test and review code, and judge when a task needs your own hands on the keyboard. - Own the quality of everything you ship, whether you or an agent wrote it: clear designs, solid tests, careful review, and telemetry that shows whether a change worked. - Break epics into well-scoped tickets that agents and teammates can pick up, and write the specs and context that make agent output reliable. - Partner with Product and Design to turn ambiguous problems into clear plans, push back with data, and focus on outcomes rather than tickets closed. - Help modernize our stack as you build: move features from our Rails monolith and legacy Elixir services into Node.js microservices and React Native, behind feature flags and gradual rollouts. - Build AI into the product where it helps users, such as search, recommendations and catalog data quality, working with the AI Platform and Data teams. - Raise the bar for the team: share your workflows and skills, pair with engineers who are newer to AI tools, and contribute improvements back to the shared agent platform. - Take part in on-call for the services you own, and fix problems at the root. What you've accomplished: - Bachelor's degree or equivalent practical experience. - Minimum of 6 years of professional software development experience, including shipping customer-facing product features end to end. - Daily, hands-on use of AI coding tools (such as Claude Code, Cursor or Copilot) on production work, with concrete examples of how they changed your output and how you keep quality high. - Strong proficiency in TypeScript and React. - Experience designing and building APIs and services, ideally Node.js, with good testing practices, and comfort working across a polyglot codebase that includes Ruby. - Experience with a major cloud platform (AWS preferred), CI/CD that deploys straight to production, and observability tooling. - A track record of measuring what you build: A/B tests, product metrics or clear before/after results. Bonus points: - React Native or mobile app development. - Building LLM-powered product features such as search, recommendations or data extraction. - Two-sided marketplace or e-commerce experience, including cart, checkout or payments. - Feature flags, gradual rollouts and ephemeral environments. - Mentoring engineers or leading projects across several teams. - Ruby on Rails or Elixir, or experience moving features out of a monolith. - Experience at a marketplace, e-commerce or regulated-industry company. The base pay range for this position is $162,276 - $207,690 per year, and a competitive bonus 2026 US Benefits for Full Time, Regular Employees: - Physical Health (Medical, Dental & Vision) - 100% employer-paid premium for employees - Up to 80% coverage for dependents - Company HSA contribution with the High Deductible Health Plan - 401(k) Retirement Plan (employer will match contribution up to 3.5% of employee contribution) - Basic Life, Voluntary Life and AD&D Insurance options - Supplemental, voluntary benefits - Student Loan Repayment/529 Education Savings with a monthly company contribution - FSA (Medical, Dependent, Transit and Parking) - Voluntary Life and AD&D Insurance - Critical Illness Insurance - Accident Insurance - Short- and Long-term Disability Insurance - Pet Insurance - Identity theft protection - Legal access to a network of attorneys - PTO, paid sick leave, and company holidays (including a 2026 holiday shutdown) - Paid parental leave Why Work at Weedmaps?
